Every year, VBDO organizes the human rights event HUMAN, in collaboration with EY, CNV International and ABN AMRO. HUMAN is intended as a platform for exchanging up-to-date knowledge and insights about human rights. This year HUMAN’s focus is on Access to Remedy.<\/p>\n

Access to Remedy<\/h2>\n

Access to Remedy essentially recognizes that sometimes companies have a negative impact on people, and as such is an essential element when companies work to respect human rights. The problem is, however, that there aren\u2019t a lot of companies working robustly on access to remedy.<\/p>\n

Access to effective remedies is a core component of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). Guiding Principle 1 recalls States to take “appropriate steps to prevent, investigate, punish and redress” business-related human rights abuses within their territory and\/or jurisdiction. Guiding Principle 22, in Pillar II, provides that where “business enterprises identify that they have caused or contributed to adverse impacts, they should provide for or cooperate in their remediation through legitimate processes”.<\/p>\n

The UNGPs envisage the following three types of mechanisms to provide access to effective remedies for business-related human rights abuses:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. State-based judicial mechanisms;<\/li>\n
  2. State-based non-judicial grievance mechanisms, and;<\/li>\n
  3. Non-state-based grievance mechanisms.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Since 2014, the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has examined how these mechanisms have been functioning in business and human rights cases and has produced guidance on ways to enhance the effectiveness of each mechanism. (Source: OHCHR.org).<\/p>\n
